Rodgers (collarbone) took part in practice Saturday, officially making him one of two players the Packers have designated to return from injured reserve this season, Michael Cohen of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Rodgers isn't necessarily considered ahead of schedule in his recovery, but rather just progressing in his rehab process. There are still many hurdles for the star quarterback to clear before the medical staff allows him to suit up in game action. While his presence at practice is certainly cause for optimism, Rodgers won't be eligible to return from injured reserve until the Packers' Week 15 contest against the Panthers.
